About The Event
Swami and Friends is the stage play adapted from the famous debut novel by R.K. Narayan, published in 1935, and is a charming coming-of-age story set in the fictional South Indian town of Malgudi during the 1930s British colonial era. The play tracks the daily escapades, school dynamics, and evolving relationships of a 10-year-old schoolboy named Swaminathan (Swami). It captures the pure essence of childhood innocence, the complexities of peer groups, and the creeping entry of adult realities like political unrest into a child's idyllic world. |
